KUALA LUMPUR (April 17): Excel Force MSC Bhd has proposed a one-for-two share split to increase the liquidity of its shares.

In a filing with Bursa Malaysia today, the group said the share split involves the subdivision of every one existing share into two split shares, which would halve its share price to below RM1 per share.

Excel Force said the share split would result in more affordable share price that would appeal to a wider group of public shareholders and investors.

“The proposed share split may also improve the trading liquidity of the ordinary shares in the company on the Main Market of Bursa Securities by increasing the number of shares in issue,” it said.

Subsequent to the share split, Excel Force’s issued share capital will grow to 413.73 million shares under a minimum scenario, from 206.87 million currently.

The group’s share base could grow up to 620.30 million shares assuming full exercise of its outstanding warrants.

The share split is subject to shareholders’ approval at a forthcoming extraordinary general meeting. It expects the exercise to be completed by the third quarter of this year.

Excel Force shares closed two sen or 1.09% lower at RM1.81 today, giving it a market capitalisation of RM374.43 million.
